Data are presented as treatment medians (with 25th and 75th percentiles). The control column shows abundances in the gut microflora of sows fed the control diet during gestation (n = 10). The KF column shows abundances in the gut microflora of sows fed the konjac flour diet during gestation (n = 10). P values are from the Mann-Whitney test. KF, 2.2% konjac flour diet; FDR, false-discovery rate.
